Daughter of Charles and Sarah Jane PROCTER
Did not marry
Nurse S.J. Proctor
The death occurred in Melbourne on Saturday on Nurse Sarah Jane Proctor aged about 75 years. Nurse Proctor was very well known in Wagga and resided here until the 1914-18 war when she went overseas with the forces as a matron. She performed outstanding work during the period of that war and her services were later recognised by the authorities. Nurse Proctor who was born at Stawell (V) was a daughter of the later Mr. and Mrs. C.F. Proctor, and in late years resided in Melbourne. Messres Arthur Proctor (Yerong Creek) and Stan Proctor (Milbrulong) are brothers. News of the death of Nurse Proctor will be received with deep regret by many residents of the district who remember this outstanding personality during her residence in Wagga. The funeral is to take place in Melbourne today.
